It's apparently so bad the link is broken.

JohnnyRacer · July 12th, 2008, 10:14 PM

Fixed, damn, you guys are fast!

Lilleput · July 12th, 2008, 10:20 PM

I don't see anything wrong with the entries other than the winner.. Any gold rim should not win anything..

Aston Martin · July 12th, 2008, 10:21 PM

These threads get worse, I can't wait for top 7 oil caps.

Dins · July 12th, 2008, 10:25 PM

Rims are really very subjective. Don't think you can make an actual ranking of them.

Incorrect. A cars rim is very much part of it's styling.

My issue with the list is they only stayed with currect cars. They need to look at past cars as well.

matt2000 · July 12th, 2008, 10:26 PM

I'll agree with those although I have very little interest. I want to get my hands on the bloke who made that page, putting the results on 2 pages for no reason and then hiding the tiny page 2 link at the bottom. Grrr!

Deviate · July 12th, 2008, 10:29 PM

I agree with most of those, although I don't care for the wheels on the A5 or 8C. The R8 and Scuderia wheels aren't bad, but I wouldn't put them in the top-5.

However, I've always been a fan of the MKV GTI wheels.

Adunaphel · July 12th, 2008, 10:37 PM

The whole list feels like it was compiled on the back of a beer-mat on a late saturday night in a bar. Why? Because all the wheels on that list are from only a handful of manufacturers and are all currently available.

_HighVoltage_ · July 12th, 2008, 11:07 PM

Isn't it odd how all of the entries are from 2008?

I think the traditional Porsche Fuchs wheels deserve to be mentioned.
And the original Lamborghini Diablo wheels deserve to be in the top 10.

I nominate:

The Lamborghini Line-Up.

Thank you. Thank you.
